Galiz had not crossed the plate in the second inning before Ilohinson was fielded out in the second inning. The visitors admitted that Coyne fielded Galiz out at first in the eighth inning, while Smith had not yet touched the home bare for the run with which he was credited in the eighth. Cain had thrown homewhile Tower was discussing a play at first and Smith was not within 10-feetof the platt when caught by Lombard. The umpire did not see the play and the Cubans benefited.Inson strut k out but Michez bit safe. Danis did some pretty fielding and caught Robinson at third. In the meantime Galiz had not crossed the plate, but ilie umpire, who was looking at third base, decided otherwise, and therun scored.In the third Garvey hit safe and stole second. Galiz let Clark’s hit get away from him and Garvey scored. A little wild pitching followed, but Clark was caught at third.Coyne hit safe in the fourth and wentto second on a passed Tali but was left.

Cain came home and Clark was followed to cross the plate by too many of the Cubans gelling in front of the ball on Sampson’sthrow to the plate. The visitors went out in ordqr in the fifth and sixth and the only man to reach a base in the scvt nth was Michez, he being hit by a pitchd ball.

Among the people who witnessed the game andbluntly refused to settle, wen manypeople in fairly good circumstances. In the estimation of the public they are very small. Many of them have not the courage to walk over in the main crowd to witness the game, but sneak-over to the bank or behind the trees on theforced to make a poor throw by Garrison deliberately catching him by the arm. With two out and men on second and third. Galiz hit to Coyne. The latter fumbled but recovered in time to catch the runner. The umpire did not sec it that way however, and while he was explaining matters, Cain threw home and eauglit Smith. This play he failed to see altogether. Robinson followed with a hit but Galiz was caught trying to reach third.north side of the park. A publication of the names of some « f the people who settle and some who refuses to comedown with the cash, may be in order by the next game. People who pay certainly would not object to see their names in print, while those who do not settle, can have no say in the matter.The game abounded in many pretty plays in which Kenney, Cassidy, Sedgwick, Garrison and Malone took part. Running catches by the former cut off several runs, while stops by the others brought forth applause from the large audience. Both pitchers did good work, ithough Sedgwick proved the most ef-ctive at the proper time. He used his cad throughout the game,, relying but little on speed. He was unusually cool and always appeared to know where to throw the ball to the best advantage.IllsThe visitors closed the first half of the ninth with a double play while Lombard gathered in a foul fly and ended the game after Garrison hadmade a three bagger.The score:STANLEYS.IHe was somewhat slowr in his delivery, greatly handicapping Lombard in throwing to bases The latter did not have his arn^9\vn as well as usual, t the by*(wrvev, Cassidy and Garri-cfirrnm off the honors.1’he Stanleys went to bat and after oyne went out at second, Lombard reached first on a wild throw by Grant.Danis was hit bv a pitched ball, Cain and Garvev proved good waiters and Lombard was forced across the plate.
